Five Disneyland employees have been rushed to the hospital over a hazmat situation at the California theme park, according to the Anaheim Fire Department. Building materials being used by a contractor backstage 'produced a reaction', including shortness of breath and dizziness, in employees, a Disney spokesperson told the Daily Mail. All five employees were taken to a local hospital and others were treated by paramedics at the park, the spokesperson said. Star Tours is a 3D motion simulator attraction at Disneyland that allows guests to go on various, ultra-realistic Star Wars adventures. Aspiring NFL referee Matthew Cohn, 28, also died by suicide at the same hotel as Equitz on October 23.
